gerber (and other manufacturing) export via SKILL?

drdanmc

Are there some SKILL functions for generating manufacturing files such as RS247X, NC Drill, and also things like STEP export, PDF export, etc?  Or do these things need to be done via individual command line programs like `artwork`?

My goal is to automate as much as possible to make it possible for anyone on the team to be able to generate these files without needing to navigate several different menus and be presented with many different options that will get in the way of consistency across a team.  I don't have much Allegro experience but have extensive experience with Virtuoso, SKILL in Virtuoso, and the IC flow in general.  I've always used automation for chip tapeout so anyone on our team can confidently generate all output with a simple command.

Thanks
